Upgraded Brakes & More

[Tone]

SP will make them any way you want them as they are essentially made to order here in the US. You emailed me and I sent you a lot of info - what's up with that? EBC is made in UK but are excellent products. Brembo is hype and very difficult to work with refusing to supply me with rotor rebuild seals ($5 part) but would happily sell me a $5000 replacement set of rotors! Cryo is hype unless you are a competitor but you can send any new rotor to them and they'll treat them.

Rears are seldom replaced so it does not make sense for many companies to tool up for them. Seldom can you see enough of both front and rear rotors especially with stock rims anyway but it is your money.

Tone,

I'd be more than happy to purchase products from you - I have before, and I've always been satisfied. Thanks for the hitch and seat brackets, BTW. I got them installed this past weekend and both are GREAT mods. You never responded to my last two e-mails so I figured you either got too busy or you couldn't help me, so I started looking elsewhere. If you can get SP to cut the rear rotors, lets get it done! I've had two resellers so far tell me that SP won't do them.

This project is starting to get crazy... I'm looking at doing all new shocks and the diff drop brackets and modified cross member from Darlington now too. The flood gates are officially open!

I just bought a set of the R1 concept drilled and slotted rotors. i think the quality is just fine. tho i'll never need the performance of them, they cost about the same as solid (stock) rotors, and they are zinc coated so they wont rust.

excuse my ignorance, but wont the zinc plating rub off on a brake rotor, leading to rust?

So the center (vents) won't rust.

Just a FYI...
There is a set of four, drilled/slotted/zinc (R-1 concepts) for $164.99 on e-bay.

I just bought a set of four, drilled/slotted/zinc (R1 Concepts Inc.) for $154.99 from their website today. Shipping was just over $48 for me in PA.
